Te Paepae Matua mō Rongoā is a national collective of rongoā Māori practitioners made up of kaumātua, pakeke and practitioners of traditional rongoā Māori.
Recently they held their national hui, and discussions included standards for practitioners, best practice, intellectual property issues and the establishment of a legal entity for Te Paepae Matua. The hui was hosted by Tauranga Moana at Huria Marae with support from Te Puni Kōkiri.
